Cannabis x Cannabis: The New Documentary Series Unveiling The Impact Of Cannabis In Latin America

By Cristian Baral via El Planteo. 

El Planteo presents the first episode of its new audiovisual project: Cannabis x Cannabis, a documentary series about conversations between cannabis referents from all over Latin America.

Cannabis x Cannabis is a series of talks between two people who have totally different trades or professions, but who find communion with the cannabis plant.

The 5 chapters that make up the first season feature DJs, actresses, singers, doctors, politicians, influencers, activists, and entrepreneurs, among other personalities that cover this broad universe.

EP 1: Carolina Gaillard x Marcelo Morante, A Talk About Cannabis

Both Gaillard and Morante are two key figures in cannabis in Argentina.

Carolina Gaillard is a national lawmaker for Frente de Todos and author of the Law on the Use of Medicinal Cannabis. On the day she was sworn in as a legislator in Congress, Carolina Gaillard swore for "no more prisoners for cultivating the cannabis plant" and put the issue on the agenda of the hegemonic media of the Argentine Republic.

For his part, Marcelo Morante is the doctor who has fought the hardest all this time for the medicinal use of the plant and is now Vice President of ARICCAME, the Regulatory Agency of the Hemp and Medicinal Cannabis Industry in Argentina.

Also, Dr. Morante is one of the promoters of REPROCANN (Cannabis Program Registry) granted by the Ministry of Health, which allows the cultivation and circulation of cannabis for medicinal, therapeutic and/or pain palliative purposes.
